ION TELEVISION LAUNCHES DTV EDUCATION CAMPAIGN
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: ]
ION -- which comprises TV stations reaching 94 million households and digital-multicast channels -- said it will air public-service announcements in all dayparts, including primetime; make executives available to speak to the community about the switch; and run crawls and alerts about what it said has been termed the "broadcast triple play" of better reception, more program streams and mobile TV.
